5 Books to motivate you to become the best girl boss you can possibly be

IMG_3375.JPG

It’s almost back to school time, and whether or not you are still in school it seems as though the season of relaxation and fun ends when school is back in session.

The non-summer months are, personally, when I get the most done. I know I can’t go to the beach, and it’s too cold to lay by the pool so I use my time wisely and I spend it trying to be the best girl boss that I can be! I truly believe that you can never stop learning. Every day I make it my mission to learn something new. Whether that new piece of information will benefit me in my career, family life, house work or chores, or anything else you could possibly think of, learning something new each day allows me to expand my horizons and take a step forward.

One of the best ways I love to learn new things is through self developmental or “self help” books. I could spend hours curled up on the couch reading. I truly love spending my down time reading and learning new things.

With that being said, I wanted to share a few of my favorite books that I have read over the past couple of years that I believe have really benefitted me, and have helped me along the way during my journey to success, which lets be honest never really ends.
